Second, Zinnia destroys the transporter while babbling about alternate worlds that she provides absolutely no proof even exist and would be endangered. We know they do, but she provides no proof to characters in-universe who don't.
Bonus:
Small fuck you to Zinnia: Despite constantly trash talking Steven, she never dares to confront him for his key stone.
Medium fuck you to Zinnia: She never once apologizes for her reckless actions that repeatedly almost doomed Hoenn.
Huge fuck you to Zinnia: Those Draconid bastards are the only reason Deoxys is riding a meteor to the planet in the first place. At the beginning of the Delta Episode, the space center observed that the meteor was going to impact just off of Route 131... In other words, with the Sky Pillar that the Draconids built. I don't know why, but their creation is an apocalypse homing beacon. This is further backed up by Deoxys appearing there if you knock it out in space instead of catching it.
